Beelithina braced herself for combat but she had unknowingly played right into the demon's hand.
There was no doubt that the demon had slipped out approximately the same time that Kenzo resurrected, Beelithina was careless.
"How did you escape?" Beelithina asked as the figure came into view and it was the exact man that Rean had come into contact with.
The blind man with a deformed face but this person wasn't a demon.
Beelithina gave this person a closer look and realized that this person was a human, the body itself that is.
"Possession?" She thought; that would make a lot more sense but she still had to be on her guard.
The person stopped a couple of meters from her and Beelithina didn't know who was possessing this body but it had to be a powerful demon to accomplish this feat.
"Who are you?" Beelithina asked but all she got in response was a raised hand in her direction, she braced herself but nothing happened.
"It seems this vessel is far too weak to use any of my powers," The man's mouth moved but these were not his words nor his voice.
"I know that voice…" Beelithina noted as a cold bead of sweat dripped down her forehead.
"You're the Prince of Hell, Lucifer," Beelithina pointed out but Lucifer didn't respond to her.
He didn't understand what was going on but he was getting used to his body.
Lucifer was one of the superior powers in hell but there was no reason for him to come to heart.
She knew that if he could use his powers, then she would very well be dead but it now made sense why her communication was cut off.
Beelithina found herself getting down on one knee, this man was her superior and this was her body moving on its own.
"It looks like you have created an abomination," Lucifer pointed out, unlike most demons, he could monitor what was going on in the human world regardless of whether the gates were open or closed.
This was a power exclusive to him and as such, it was easy to monitor not only Beelithina but Kenzo but why was he here?
"It was not my intention, Lord Lucifer," Beelithina didn't understand why she was this scared.
There was no reason to, she could kill the body he was in and send him back to hell.
In his current state, Lucifer was no match for her but she couldn't bring herself to raise a finger;
Lucifer walked towards her and Beelithina begged her body to move but it wasn't responding to her.
It didn't take long for him to reach her front.
"Beelithina, do you wish to be free?" Lucifer asked and this surprised her.
Beelithina looked up and noticed that his aura was fading.
That would make sense, no vessel on earth could contain his soul for a prolonged period. More so that of a cripple.
"Yes, My Lord. I do wish to be free," Beelithina was honest with her response because there was not much Lucifer could do to her in this state.
Lucifer simply smiled upon hearing this but he was aware of what awaited her.
Kenzo wasn't enough, there was no way he could fight off the demons of hell.
He was only a human that had limited experience but what goal did Lucifer have?
Unfortunately, this wouldn't be known to anyone but the devil himself.
Lucifer whispered something into her ear that had her shaking right before his vessel gave up.

Kenzo was taken to the boss of the Triad, he was surprised by how easy it was.
They wouldn't be this accessible but it wasn't Wang that he met, it was his right-hand man, Li.
Li was composed, he didn't know who this man was but if he managed to convince Qin to bring him here then he must be an impressive man.
They were left alone in a room and Qin gestured for the young man to sit.
He couldn't help but notice Kenzo's good looks, there was no doubt that a man with these looks would have more options in terms of a career path so why did he choose crime?
Li wanted to know who this man was and why the Yakuza sent him of all people to negotiate with them.
He expected a harsher response because other gangs were watching and if the Yakuza showed any weakness, they would pounce.
"You have caused quite the ruckus, I'm sure you know this can't go unpunished," Li said outright but Kenzo wasn't interested in hearing this.
"You aren't the boss, are you?" Kenzo questioned outright, he didn't want to beat around the bush.
He could feel it in his bones that Beelithina was in trouble but he didn't care what happened to her because she couldn't die.
He surmised that it had to do with the light that he had seen earlier but if they could get rid of her then that's one less thing to worry about.
Kenzo was feeling his body weakening but that must be because of the large amount of energy to alter multiple people's memory.
He had to replenish his strength and the only way to do that was through sex.
"I'm not, the boss doesn't wish to see you either and I hate to say it but you aren't leaving here alive. Your death will be used to send yet another message, I'm afraid," Li informed Kenzo but Kenzo didn't show any reaction to hearing this.
He had walked right into the lion's den but this was a man of importance, it was a pity that he couldn't come face to face with Wang.
Li snapped his fingers and Kenzo was surrounded, he couldn't use mind control because of the energy it required.
Kenzo was still new to this and in due time, he would adjust to this new power but right now, he was in the middle of a conspiracy he needed to survive.
Guns were pointed in his direction and Kenzo got up to his feet, realizing that there was no talking with the Triad, this was a full-scale war and Kenzo confirmed what he wanted to do.
These men were being endorsed by someone powerful and before he could think further about his current situation, bullets echoed but Kenzo couldn't withstand the barrage and the bullets ripped right through him, forcing the man to the ground.
"What?" Kenzo thought to himself, this felt different, Kenzo saw a creature with a scythe standing over him, it was the Grim Reaper.
